From booze cruising with Amanda Holden to buying pool floaties with Katie Price, Keith Lemon has bonded with a long list of celebrities while running ridiculous errands on his ITV2 Shopping show. However, he got to know Strictly ’s Craig Revel Horwood a little too well in the shoe department while filming series four.
“I was recently in Blackpool with Craig and I’ll be honest with you, I said this to his face: he had sandals on and he has feet like a fish finger sandwich,” Keith says. “He has the worst feet I’ve ever seen. It’s like his toes are trying to escape his feet.
“I think it’s apparently down to all the dancing he’s done, but I would definitely use the word ‘buckled’ about his toes. But we had a lovely time – we did a bit of karaoke and bought some phallic-shaped rock.”
The comedy character, who is the alter ego of Leigh Francis, is back on our screens for another series of Shopping With Keith Lemon – and this time, Keith has been commandeering trolleys up and down the country.
“I went up to Newcastle to meet Chris and Rosie Ramsey and we did the big shop,” he says. “I went shopping with Olly Murs for a new fridge, Denise Van Outen took me to a pie and mash shop, and tomorrow I’m shopping with Joey Essex. I think we’re looking for a swing set for his nephew.”
As for who’s footing the bill, Keith whispers, “ITV pays, but don’t tell anyone!”
However, he admits TikTok sensation and trainspotter Francis Bourgeois is the first guest of the series to buy him a present. “And what a wonderful gift it was – he bought me a Back To The Future Scalextric.”
